Chapter 200 My Surname is Lu
Director Liang took Fang Yu around the nursing home for a tour.
Many old things were still there.
The old benches, the robust plane trees, and the pavilions where the elderly liked to stay.
It's just that everything had become even older.
After touring the nursing home, they returned to the director's office where the two chatted about days gone by.
"You little rascal, when you were young, you often came here to freeload, causing me quite a bit of trouble," Director Liang mentioned the past, but his memories were filled with happiness.
"Director Liang, it's just some small meals, don't be so miserly," Fang Yu said with a laugh, but his heart was moved. Back then, when the Lu Family ostracized Fang Yu and sent him to study in junior high school in Yanjing without living expenses, he survived on his own. If not for Director Liang's frequent help, who knows what would have happened.
"If there's anyone to blame, it's because you could eat so much."
While saying this, Director Liang coughed.
"Director Liang, this is an old problem of yours, let me prescribe you some medicine." Fang Yu saw a pen on the desk and reached out to write a prescription.
Director Liang said, "Forget it, we're all just one step away from being buried in the ground, I don't care much about prolonging this. The nursing home is not doing well nowadays, we need to save wherever we can."
His life was dedicated to the nursing home, he took care of others in their old age, yet no one took care of his.
Fang Yu casually took out a bank card and placed it on the table, saying, "This is a small token of my thanks."
"How can I take your money?" Director Liang refused.
"Don't argue with me. After walking around, those old items haven't changed much, think about others if not for yourself," said Fang Yu.
Upon hearing this, Director Liang fell silent.
Seeing this, Ye Wenjun was moved.
She unexpectedly realized, Fang Yu was here to donate money.
Without much thought, Ye Wenjun took out a card from her bag and placed it on the table, saying, "Director Liang, this is a small token of my heart."
Hm?
Fang Yu turned to look at her, her expression was very cold... it was hard to tell what she was thinking.
Director Liang sighed, his eyes reddening.
It had always been him struggling alone to barely keep this rundown nursing home alive!
Seeing Fang Yu and Ye Wenjun reaching out to help, the hardships of the past surged up in his heart, uncontrollably...
"I'll represent the nursing home and thank you both," said Director Liang.
"It's nothing."
Fang Yu then picked up the pen, writing the password on the paper; Ye Wenjun did the same.
Following that, Fang Yu took out another piece of paper, wrote down a prescription, and handed it to Director Liang.
"Follow the prescription, take the medicine daily, continue for three months..." instructed Fang Yu.
Director Liang was overjoyed, saying, "Good, good... didn't expect you to become a doctor... that's great."
Fang Yu nodded and stood up, saying, "I have to go now, I'll come to visit you again when I have time."
Director Liang was about to retain him, but Fang Yu had already reached the door, turning back to say: "Don't bother, I'm afraid I might eat you out of house and home."
"Hey, you rascal, remember to come and visit."
...
Fang Yu and Ye Wenjun left the Yan Mountain Nursing Home.
As soon as they got in the car, Fang Yu asked, "How much did you donate?"
"Not much."
"Hmm, I'll pay you back later. How about rounding it to a whole number, sixteen million?" Fang Yu seriously said.
Ye Wenjun's eyes flickered, looking at him and said, "The card just now, three million."
"..."
Three, hundred, thousand?
Fang Yu swallowed.
How long would it take to earn that much, considering the money spent on the Phoenix Ancient Jade... quite a headache!
The car started moving.
The speed was very slow, slow enough to appreciate the roadside scenery.
After a long silence, Ye Wenjun suddenly spoke, "Why does Director Liang call you Lu Yu?"
Fang Yu turned around, facing forward, thought for a moment, and made a stopping gesture: "Stop here."
The car stopped immediately.
The sun was setting in the west, casting a splendid display of evening clouds.
The stopping place of the car was perfectly positioned to catch the setting sun.
A breathtaking scene.
"Ye Wenjun, let me ask you, do you really want to know?" Fang Yu seriously said, "Think carefully, after I tell you, it might affect our relationship."
Hearing this, Ye Wenjun fell into thought, and after a moment, she raised her eyes to look into the distance and said, "Go ahead."
Fang Yu sighed, indeed curiosity killed the cat.
"Exactly as you heard… My surname was originally Lu."
"The Lu from the Lu Family."
Ye Wenjun was shocked.
There are so many people with the surname Lu, but Fang Yu used the Lu Family to emphasize this surname!
"Correct! I was the Young Master of the Lu Family! My real name, Lu Yu!"
Upon hearing this, even though Ye Wenjun was the precious daughter of the Ye Family, she couldn't help but shudder!
She was stunned.
Her beautiful eyes incredulously stared at Fang Yu.
A flood of emotions washed over her!
Before Ye Wenjun could ask, Fang Yu continued:
"Thirteen years ago… I was expelled from the Lu Family, drifted to Jiangzhou, and was adopted by the Fang Family."
Ye Wenjun was horrified, her brows furrowed—
"Why were you expelled?"
Fang Yu laughed sardonically, shook his head twice, and said, "Because, I couldn't attain enlightenment... I'm a useless trash who couldn't enter the Martial Arts path. The weakest of the Lu Family, are all at the Martial Arts Third Layer! And I, am a complete waste who couldn't attain enlightenment! Can you believe it? Even I can't believe it… But this is the fact, this is the reality!"
Feeling the emotional turmoil in Fang Yu, Ye Wenjun's pretty face was filled with disbelief.
She hadn't expected this!
She hadn't expected him to be from the Lu Family!
What kind of soul was hidden under his carefree shell?
In heaven, there is also darkness.
In hell, there is dawn.
She was dumbfounded, her brain ceased to function.
After a silence, Fang Yu continued to speak:
"The Fang Family's demise was orchestrated by the Lu Family, and the rise of the Jin Family and Zhao Family was also supported by the Lu Family…" Fang Yu's voice became calm as he began to state the facts.
"So you started to seek revenge?" Ye Wenjun asked.
"Yes."
Fang Yu's response was concise, his gaze resolute, "The blood spilled by the Fang Family, let the Zhao and Jin families compensate… The blood debt of my parents, let the Lu Family pay it back."
Upon hearing this last sentence, Ye Wenjun's slender figure swayed slightly.
The Jin Family, Zhao Family… the Lu Family…
Such formidable enemies!
Especially the suffocating Lu Family! The family reputed to have numerous experts!
After pondering for a while, Ye Wenjun spoke:
"I support your revenge… but, I do not support you going to your death. I know you are strong, you've killed half of the Ye Family's Hidden Dragon Guards, you have the methods and the determination… but the Lu Family is truly terrifying."
She knew that these words might provoke Fang Yu, but she chose to say them anyways.
"Going to my death? Why are you afraid of me dying?" Fang Yu asked softly with a chuckle.
"If you die, I'll become a widow…"
Well.
That logic seems quite right.
Fang Yu could not refute.
The setting sun fell, and the twilight deepened, Fang Yu smiled slightly, "Wenjun, what do you think of my strength?"
Ye Wenjun bravely met his gaze, saying:
"Although I don't understand Martial Arts… I know you are very strong, stronger than Grandpa Zhong, stronger than my father, even stronger than the Zhao Family…"
Fang Yu shook his head and flashed a smile: "It's good that you know!"
However…
Ye Wenjun was still somewhat worried, Fang Yu was determined, and what else could she do but support him, she then said: "If you've decided, then go ahead, the Ye Family… will fully support you."
Fang Yu was moved.
"Next Tuesday, no one from the Ye Family should leave the house."
Ye Wenjun was startled, "Is it so urgent?"
"Some things are inevitable."
Snap, Fang Yu opened the car door, suddenly exhaled, and chuckled, "Don't worry about me so much… let me show you something."
Swoosh—
The Mandala Flower blooms!
